Library Loot - January Edition

Sorry for the lousy picture...it's getting late and I was feeling a bit lazy. I realized the other day that it had been awhile since I shared my latest library finds and so I thought I better share my madness. Because if looking at my stack of craziness doesn't make you feel better about your own stack of books...well, then maybe you should keep in mind that this isn't all of it. Aack! I'm thinking that I should probably stop going to the library for a bit. But realistically that isn't going to happen as I still have a few books on hold...lol! I told you I had an addiction to the library :) Anyways, from top to bottom here is what I've brought home lately:
  • Amazon Ink by Lori Devoti

  • Taken By The Others by Jess Haines

  • B is For Burglar by Sue Grafton

  • Destiny Kills by Keri Arthur

  • Rosemary and Rue by Seanan McGuire

  • Stray by Rachel Vincent (I did decide that I want to reread this series before I move on to the 4th book)

  • Allison Hewitt is Trapped by Madeleine Roux (And I squealed when I saw this one waiting for me on the holds shelf)

  • These Things Hidden by Heather Gudenkauf

  • Deogratias: A Tale of Rwanda by J.P. Stassen

  • Tomorrow, When the War Began by John Marsden

  • The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisen (This is for the Women of Fantasy of Book Club that I had to join after I read Christine's post on it)

Oh boy! What have I gotten myself into? So many books, and so little time is such an understatement when I look at my pile from the library. But they all look and sound so darn good that I seriously can't resist. And you know the library is free, right? I felt like I should emphasize that because if I had bought all of these ....oh boy! What do you think I should read first out of this stack?? Recommendations or thoughts are much appreciated. And now I'm think that I should probably go dive into my current read :) Thanks to Marg and Claire for hosting Library Loot...make sure you share what you've checked out from the library lately!

  10. The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms is on my TBR, too. I just bought it this month and am really looking forward to it! I should have a library loot post today, but I am a bit scared of the holds that came in and so didn't venture out...

  11. Sharon- I always tend to bite off more than I can chew at the library but I can't resist. LOL!

    Marcia- I most definitely embrace my addiction because hey it is free :)

    Nikki Ann- I really liked Hunted By the Others so I have high hopes. But I have to admit that I'm not a huge fan of the cover..hopefully the next book's cover will be better.

    Naida- I cannot resist my library whatsoever. And putting books on hold...irresistable :)

    Aths- You and me both :)

    Kailana- I've heard good things about The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms and am really looking forward to reading it. But I'll also be interested in hearing your thoughts when you read it :)
